Before you can switch allegiance, you must have joined either the Republican Society Gleichstellung (aka Souveran, Sahasrha) or the Royalist Society Lealtad (aka Esmero, Dronarati). To start/complete the quests, talk to the opposition leader - Republican Simon Ayende in Villa de Libertad (Auch) or Princess Gabriela in Royalist Embassy (Reboldeaux). All quests must be done in sequence.

When all the quests are completed, you may choose to switch to the new society. You will also have the option to either quietly join the society or announce it to the entire server (i.e. server notice similar to Master character promotion).

This imported event lasts until June 6. There are 2 different missions (Beginner & Intermediate), but you may only do one per day. Talk to Cruz after completing the mission for reward.

The original event for Korean server include a 3rd mission based on Trinity Elemental Force (v10.7.0) map, but since Sword 2 is still in v8.5, we don't have the map inside our client. That may be why the mission was not included. The other 2 missions are using Trinity mission map.

We haven't been in Granado Espada much this week, as we decided to take a short break after the last weekend. It is getting really boring and repetitive. Everything becomes just a routine and habit. Once the routine is broken though, it seems there is usually much less motivation to logon again. Bleh. In the first place, as previously mentioned here, v8.5 doesn't have much to offer to begin with.

But really, the game needs something radically new and different, and not just new characters, stances, equipment, and raids. Training characters and stances are just plainly repetitive. The process of crafting, upgrading, and enchanting equipment is repetitive too. The cycle just repeats endlessly with higher and higher ATK/DEF Rating equipment or different equipment types. Even the current raid designs - bosses with hundreds of millions of hit points and one-hit knock-out attacks (if you lag or make one wrong move) - rail-road players into the same specific teams/roles. Frequent stu…
